The Timaeus and the Critias is a Socratic dialogue in two parts. It serves as a response to a narrative of an ideal state as recounted by Socrates. It begins with Timaeus's theoretical explanation of the universe and his account of the creation of the world, from its inception to the emergence of humanity.

The Critias, the second part of Plato's dialogue, includes a narrative of the rise and fall of Atlantis, an ancient, powerful, and prosperous empire ruled by the descendants of Poseidon, which ultimately sank into the sea.
